Salisbury

I visited Salisbury today for the first time in years. The picture above was one of the images I grabbed during the visit (the purpose of the visit was not photography). I will add this picture to my Alamy portfolio in due course. I have read on photograph forums that you cannot submit pictures of people who are recognisable to agencies, unless you have signed model releases. Although this is true of the microstocks, it is not a universal rule. It is of course true that not having releases restricts the photo's use, but this image could still be used in an editorial context to illustrate a story about riverside regeneration, etc.

The image itself was difficult to process due to the contrasty lighting. The final result is a combination of three RAW conversions - one converted for the mid-ground, one for the sky and one for the swans.
